If they are YOUR photos, you can click on the icon above the image to order prints!. It's easy!. Here's a stock answer that I have not posted in a year, so maybe you will find some useful information here:

I ordered a few from Flickr, just to see what they were like and I was very pleased!. You can run them under water and they wipe dry without any damage! The print quality was excellent!. I got 3-5x7's and 1-8x10 and the total, including shipping was $5!.27 or something like that!. They were $5!.20-something for sure!. You can also order them on-line and then pick them up at a local Target to save shipping charges, but one user on the Flickr forum said, "I ordered some prints from flickr and chose the 'pickup at Target' option and the quality is horrible! I ordered the same prints from flickr directly last week and they were great!. This time I was in a hurry, and they're awful!" I guess the quality at Flickr is controlled better than at a local Target!.

Since I don't know what you are really looking for, I'd say just try them and see!. You can get 4x6 for 15￠, 5x7 for 59￠, 8x10 for $1!.99, and 20x30 for $19!.95!. You can also get 4 wallet prints for 99￠!. They will not offer larger prints if the quality will not be satisfactory!. I've only got a couple where they offer 20x30, for instance, and they are 4000 dpi slide scans!.

Their minimum resolutions are 150 ppi:
Wallet 2!.5x3!.5 - 525 x 375 pixels (4 for 99￠)
4xD (4x6 or 4x5!.33) - 900 x 600 pixels - (15￠ or 20￠)
5x5 square - 750 pixels x 750 pixels - (99￠)
5xD (5x7 or 5x6!.6) - 1050 x 750 pixels - (59￠ or 65￠)
8xD (8x10 or 8x10!.66) - 1500 x 1200 pixels - ($1!.99 or $2!.15)
20x30 - 4500 x 3000 pixels ($19!.95)

The "D" dimension is matched to the actual picture dimensions!. For instance, a typical 4:3 aspect ratio used by many point and shoot digital cameras will give the "odd" size specified above!. The "standard" sizes will be used for SLR photos where the aspect ratio is 3:2!.

Flickr WILL print what you send them, even though their "minimum" resolution is 150 ppi!. You will get a "quality control" notice, though, telling you why the print is not up to their standards!. There is no "print satisfcation guarantee" like some stores have, so don't expect them to do the impossible and then ask for your money back when you do not like the results!. Try to stick to a higher resolution and do not go below their 150 ppi minimum!.
